1950 Dime, PR68 Ultra CameoOne of the Finest-Known Examples

1950 10C PR68 Ultra Cameo NGC. As the first year of the
newly restarted proofs, the 1950 is predictably a rare coin,
especially with Ultra Cameo contrast. The PR68 designation makes it
even more significant and makes this quite the purchase for a
Registry Set collector. The field-device contrast could not be more
profound. Each side is brilliant, the only exception being a faint
streak of planchet granularity on the upper left of the reverse, a
trait that identifies this as the plate coin on page 48 of Rick
Tomaska's Cameo and Brilliant Proof Coinage of the 1950 to 1970
Era (1991). Census: 4 in 68 Ultra Cameo, 0 finer
(3/14).(Registry values: N1793) (NGC ID# 27EJ, PCGS# 95225)
